WATCH: Lyndon Johnson Likes His Pants With Extra Room In The Crotch

Every guy needs pants, but when you’re the undisputed leader of the free world, you can get pants made specifically to accomodate, uh, what needs accommodating. And that’s just what Lyndon B. Johnson did one late summer day in 1964 — and we have to wonder whether or not he knew he was being recorded, because he belches and talks freely about his bunghole. Put This On found the recording of the phone call and worked with animator Tawd Dorenfeld to make this video, which is funnier than an animated recording of a president has any right to be.

    so this dude is like a more aggressive “baumhauer”(sp) from “King Of The Hill”?

    What is the point of posting this? To embarrass a former president? or just to be funny. This is 64, when all means of getting tailored pants was difficult, not like today when you can find whatever you want on the Internet. LBJ could be crude, but I suspect that if all personal conversations of all presidents were aired, we’d see pretty much the same thing.

    Please tell me what’s civil about this….

    Yeah, when you’re from Texas everything(s) is/are bigger… just let out the seems, damn-nit.

  • Ajjans27

    I think this is delightful! He’s candid and funny and a regular guy.

  • Ka3otu

    Funny…and scary, on so many levels. :-)

    there was no red tape back then, now there must be three departments (full pension/benefits) to handle such matter

    see my comment below: it actually tells us (a good thing) about 1964: there was no red tape back then, now there must be three departments (full pension/benefits) to handle such matter

    Give LBJ a break. His huevos are sensitive just like everybody else, and, his damned pocket knife keeps falling out. The last thing you need, when you’re considering pushing the Big Red Button on the Nuclear Football, are painful testicles and your pocketknife and change clattering all over the floor of the bunker.

    Guy goes into Men’s Wearhouse, says he wants a pair of pants. Takes a pair, goes into changing room, comes out, says, “These pants remind me of Englewood Episcopal Church.” Salesman says, “What! How could a pair of pants remind you of a church?” Guy says, “Well, ya know the ballroom in Englewood Episcopal Church?”

    There’s no ballroom in Englewood Episcopal Church.”

    “Same with these pants!”
